Zukertort Opening: Lemberger GambitBETA

51%45%

    e4 increases White's central pawn control and allows the Bf1 to develop. The pawn is unprotected and can be taken for free.

The Lemberger Gambit is not seen as a viable opening and scores very poorly at all levels. The lost central pawn is more important than a slight lead in development.
